Same price either way--$10+tax per person.

Don't get confused. You cannot add on an extra day to tickets. Buy the max that you might use. The ticket is much cheaper per day that way. To do one extra day you will have to buy a one day ticket at the 70 or 80 dollars per ticket

no you cannot add on to an existing ticket, no matter where you bought it. The diff between a 7 and 8 day ticket is minimal. Buy the 8 day now. To extend you would have to buy a one day ticked, very expensive

Sorry, but this is completely incorrect.

I'm sorry the other poster confused you.

We did this last August to add a few days as we needed them. $10+tax for each extra day. Here's the sticky:

Upgrading MYW Tickets (Not to Annual Passes)
An upgrade is adding one or more days to any base ticket, and/or adding one or more of the three options (Hopper, WPF&M or NE) to a ticket.

Note that any upgrade requires a cash (or cash equivalent) payment and can only be done on a one to one basis. You cannot combine the value of more than one ticket. In other words, if you had a six day base ticket and a one day base, you could not add the value of both to end up with one ticket of six or more days with one or more of the options. If, however, you have three tickets and are paying to upgrade each of them, this can be done on one transaction. (See the special note below about water parks.)

Any upgrade must be done at WDW at a location with access to the Automated Ticketing System (ATS). Basically this is any park (including water park) ticket window or Guest Services location, or one of the Downtown Disney Guest Services locations. The Lobby Concierge staff at the Resorts do not have all the accesses as the Parks. It cannot be done at a Disney Store.

Any MYW ticket can be upgraded within 14 days of first use. There are no exceptions, other than those discussed in the next paragraph. This applies even if the ticket has the No Expire Option. If the first day of use is a Sunday, the last time an upgrade or modification may be done is 11:59:59pm of the second Saturday.

In addition, effective August 1, 2011, if you have used all of your entitlements on a ticket the last day of use of entitlements is also the last day that you can do any sort of upgrade. So if you had a four day ticket and your fourth day of use was a Friday, from Saturday onward you cannot do any upgrade even though it is within the 14 day period. Note this does not apply to to tickets on the KTTW or to multi-day Florida Resident Tickets; in these cases the Guest name is preprinted on the ticket and they may add days after the last entitlement is used as long as they have a photo ID that matches the name preprinted on the ticket.

Note that you can add days or WPF&M to any ticket that has all the major theme park days used, provided it meets the requirements of the previous paragraph.. However, you can not exceed ten days of total major park entitlements.

See Post #22 on Page 2 for Price Bridging, which allows you to keep a discount.

If you purchased your ticket at less than the current gate price, and your ticket has not been used, you will have to pay the difference between what Disney actually sold the ticket for and the current gate price of the ticket you are upgrading to. It is always best to use one day from the old pass prior to taking it for an upgrade; you will then have locked in the current gate price as the value of the old pass.

The No Expire option is price is based on the total number of entitlements the ticket has had. If you had an original three day ticket, added five days and then used four days you will have four days of use remaining. If you upgrade to NE you will pay the rate for eight days.

Similarly, if you had a three day NE ticket and upgraded it to five days, you would pay not only the fee for the extra two days entries but the difference between the three-day and five-day NE option.

At the water parks and Disney Quest only, if you have a one day water park or Disney Quest ticket that is unused or has been used that day you can combine that ticket with a MYW ticket to add the WPF&M option to the MYW ticket, only paying the difference between what was paid for the water park or Disney Quest ticket and the current price of the MYW option (plus tax). This will not work if the MYW ticket is already a hopper, as the cost to upgrade would be less than the price of a one day water park or DQ ticket and we do not give refunds.

This is absolutely, completely, and totally incorrect.

In June, we decided that we wanted to go into a park on our last day, but had not purchased a ticket for this before we left home. So, we went to guest relations and added one day for each person for $10 each. It was very easy to do.
